Essay Four Argument with Textual Analysis: Topic Options   Select ONE of the following topics from the list below and write a 4-6  page paper. A successful paper will make its argument with attention to specific language from the text. For this assignment, I also want you to consider bringing in a second essay (either one from the first two cycles or one we read for this cycle). For example, Friedman’s globalization article would make for a nice pairing with a global discussion of food production. (I chose this one from the list. I will provide the articles needed for this essay.) 1)      Not too surprisingly, Steingraber’s “War” ends with a call to action. Pollan’s letter is also a call to action. But what kind of action is appropriate given the sweeping reforms both Steingraber and Pollan are calling for? Do we see evidence that the government has moved to address some issues of health and food production since both of these texts were written? Remember Pollan was writing just prior to the 2008 election and Steingraber around the same time. In the last 10 years has there been more public awareness and governmental response? Have both authors moved their readers to a place of greater knowledge and potential action, whether governments and corporations have or not? As consumers are we the ones with the ultimate power to force governmental and corporate change? Remember these questions are just there to help prompt you to a direction. You are not expected to address all of the questions in the formation of your argument.
